I asked MCR to switch off ITW TP3,4 TP1s,2s this morning.

ITW entrance module has been disconnected.  All connections are labelled before or during disconnection. The 24VDC electrical plug on ITW TP1S is broken . It will be replaced with a new plug. The lift yoke is installed onto module without difficulty.   

 The west entrance module has been moved from the west target station to the silo.

2A2 window has been removed from ITW and beamlines has removed the beamtube from the penetration. The penetration has been sealed with plastic sheeting and duct tape to maintain the ventilation depression between the 2A tunnel and the Target Pit.

Window is currently stored in a lead flask in the target hall. Window fields are 26 mSv/h OC, 1.2 mSv/h at .5m. There is a 10 uSv/h field outside the flask with the window inside it.

Clamp is currently sitting bagged in ITW Station Pit, it is quite corroded.

Tank flange was video inspected but still needs to be cleaned, currently there is a slip on dust cover over the flange to protect it.

Work will resume after the nuclear ventilation comissioning is completed.

Vacuumed out remainder of debris from the wall penetration, removed cradle and checked condition. Down stream support bracket sees advanced stages of material loss (OBO 20-30% loss). See attached photos.

RPG reports that the removed beam tube has 15k CPM on the interior of the beam tube.

Tank flange was cleaned as per 2009 repair report, looks OK. Video capture of flange inspection attached as .zip file.

.03" shim was inserted into the clamp indexing block.

Yesterday we installed the 2a2 window, the drive screw was torqued until 70 ft-lbs and we stopped, the yoke is not fully closed to its hard stop with roughly 7/8" to 3/4" still to go. Similar to identical conditions to 2a3 beamline window install, see https://elog.triumf.ca/TIS/RH-ISAC/647 for that install. Otherwise clamp looks centered and installed correctly.

Concerns with the cooling lines for the window WRT to the base of the shielding plug: There is no jog bend indicated on drawings for the transition of the window cooling lines from beamline center to the corner of the shield plug penetration. See photo for cooling line position on initial removal of shielding plug. It was decided to not add a jog for the shield plug and to carefully reinsert it being mindful of the cooling lines.  The shielding plug has a chamfer on the corner to allow the cooling lines to be routed to the top.

A new beam tube cradle is being manufactured where the old one will removed and the new one swapped with the beam tube in situ. Both sides of the window still need to be leak checked.

Yesterday Aaron, Isaac and Anders inspected the EZL connection from the service chase to the optics tray using the goose neck camera in SHC. No issues or shorts could be identified. Containment box was not removed.

Today David and Anders opened up two panels on the service cap and inspected the EZL connection. No issues or shorts could be identified. Photos available on DocuShare.

Next step will likely be to remove the containment box and inspect the optics tray.

Anders and I leak checked new 2A2 window seal on ITW side. Leak detector was connected  to ITW TP4.  Base  leak rate 0.0Xe-9 atm.cc/sec. base pressure 0.0xe-4 torr.  Sprayed 15-20 psi directly underneath 2A2 window by using exist 2a2 window leak check copper tube. The leak detector got response in 5 seconds when helium was applied. the leak rate was 5xe-6 atm.cc/sec. Once the helium source was closed, the leak rate dropped quickly back to base level. To confirm the leak is at window , I sprayed 15 psi helium around all top flange seals of TM and entrance module.  There was no direct response during the spray( about 1.5- 2 minutes). There was a weak slow up response (up to 1.0 xe-7 atm.cc/sec) which was started after 1.5 minutes of spray. The weak response is cause by helium drift in my view.   Our conclusion is the 2A2 window seal on ITW side is not perfectly sealed.  The elak we saw on LD is ture , and it is located on window.  The station will be vented soon for shielding plug moving back. .

The containment box was removed yesterday. One of the main insulators on the source tray had cracked at the rear close to the bolt to the source tray mounting plate (see photos using link above)

Troubleshooting continued this morning with disconnection of the optics tray from the module. The banana plug copper tube connection was removed form the optics tray side. With the connection removed, the measurement showed open line on top of the module indicating that the problem is on the optics tray

Leak detector is connected to ITW TP4. LD Base leak rate 0.0XE-09 atm.cc/sec. Helium line is connected to existing window leak check 1/8 " copper tube. Applied 18psi helium for 1 minute. No response on LD. The window seal is good on ITW vacuum vessel. 

  Helium pressure test on TM4  water lines is done this morning. 70 psi helim , 1 minutes time to each circle. The result:

A(oven+): 0.00xE-9 atm.cc/sec

B(Oven -): 8.1Xe-7 atm.cc/sec

C(tube -): 0.00xE-9 atm.cc/sec

D(tube+): 1.0xE-5 atm.cc/sec

PQ(coil 2): capped on top. water lines were removed because of leak

RU(Coil1): 0.00xE-9 atm.cc/sec

EE: 0.00xE-9 atm.cc/sec

MSP: 0.00xE-9 atm.cc/sec

HS: No target, capped on top. It was fine on last target check in 2017 Oct.

window: Capped on top. Containment box is not installed.

The leak check on D line caused the IG1 small response during test.

B and D circle are double checked. The reasults are same.

D line leak is in E-5 atm.cc/sec range. It is possible to locate it by using helium spray method in SHC. The containment box is not on so it should be easy to do it.

Switch on IGA gauge at TCS and apply helium and water at certain psi to check the IGA response may give us more information on these leaks.

 All lines were test in last year shut down. They were good.

BIAS only. Water lines looped on top. Containment box off.

 The west entrance module has been moved from the silo to the west target station.

At 8:50 AM today, I applied water to TM4 tube heater - (B) line at TCS. All high vacuum gauges got response on this action. Water is leaking through B line on TM4.

It should be D line . David 2018-06-05

Tank level down from 76 to 55 in on TK1

Valve replaced by Curtis today

The optics tray has been removed from TM4.

Attached alignment check notes after brazing and fabrication.

First page lower half shows establishment of baseline using master jig

Second page top half shows the alignment of the target mounting plate jig and the steerer cone aperture.

Second page bottom half shows alignment of the master target jig. Master target jig needed the 9 pin and heat shield locating features removed to seat the target correctly.

Overall, source tray assembly sits .006" high on average (min .003", max .010"), .003" to the left with respect to ion beam axis.

I did a helium pressure test on TM2 water lines at TCS. We will remove the TM2 source tray soon so this test is a reference check for future new source. The result:

Helium 70 psi, 2 minutes to each circiut. Leak detector  base LR.0.0x e-9atm.cc/sec, base pressure  0.0x e-4torr

Ta+(A)  0.0x e-9atm.cc/sec

Ta-(B)  0.0x e-9atm.cc/sec

Tu-(C) 7.8x e-7 atm.cc/sec

Tu+(D) 3.5x e-7 atm.cc/sec

Coil 2(PU) 0.0x e-9atm.cc/sec

Coil 1(RU) 0.0x e-9atm.cc/sec

EE 8.2 x e-9atm.cc/sec

MSP 0.0x e-9atm.cc/sec

Containment box window  0.0 xe-9atm.cc/sec

HS  no target and opened. No test.

All water lines on module side in TM2  should be in good condition according to this test . The leak response we found on B and C lines are from water block seals mostly.           

I switched off TM2 and TCS vacuum pumps. The TCS and TM2 will be under vacuum without pumping.

Tray with loop and beam shield has been inserted into the hot cell to be installed on TM4 .
